Who is Twinkle N. Star?

Once upon a time, in the neighborhood of the Little Dipper, there lived a young star named Twinkle N. Star. (The “N” stands for “NorthStar”, his father’s name.) Twinkle was the youngest star in his neighborhood, and he was also the brightest. He liked to try new things.

One day, he was pretending to be a shooting star when he fell all the way to Earth. He landed outside St. Cloud Federal Credit Union in St. Cloud Minnesota. He decided he wanted to live in the St. Cloud-Sartell area. He learned that everyone who lives or works in Stearns County, Benton County, or Sherburne County can join St. Cloud Federal Credit Union. So he became a member and started the Star Savers Club for all the boys and girls who are Credit Union members.
